Abstract

Catamenial haemothorax (CH) is a rare manifestation of thoracic endometriosis (TE) syndrome. It is commonly seen associated with pelvic endometriosis in nulliparous reproductive-age women. Most cases are minor and self-limiting. We present an uncommon case of a 22-year-old woman with TE causing massive CH.
